They do this every year. So do the Republicans. To put it quite frankly, this isnt "news" nor is it "political discussion".

Then you would agree....that walls are a good thing and often necessary to keep out the sewer rats, whether in Philly, DC or the southern US Border?

Theres a far more direct form of evidence of hypocrisy about Hillary, the left, and 'the wall'. Start with her own words.

The MSM, except Fox, will shoot from angles that don't show the fence.

We don't want to show the democrats embracing fences, do we?

You arent implying hypocrisy regarding the value of fences and 'border' security are you?

Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't, but we're talking about a security fence.

Walls, fences, whatever. Fences make good neighbors tho.

Apparently Trump is only ~50% with you there.



Trump Flip-Flops on Border Wall, Says We Need Only HALF a Wall Because of ‘Natural Barriers’ | The PolitiStick



During an event on Thursday, Trump explained that he intended to build a wall along the Mexican border and noted that the stretch is roughly 2,000 miles long. He noted that we would only need about a thousand miles or so because of already-existing “natural barriers.”

These “natural barriers,” however, entail everything from roaring rivers to tiny streams that can hardly serve as a deterrent to illegal immigration.

Shortly after Trump’s comments, Brandon Darby of Breitbart Texas began noting that the “natural barriers” about which Trump spoke are hardly formidable obstacles.

Naturally, Darby encountered significant push-back from Trump’s devout followers who evidently took issue with Mr. Darby doing the math to discover that much of his home state, a state ravaged by illegal immigration, would be left high-and-dry after Trump rolled-back his promise of a wall that could be used to effectively stop illegal immigration.

We are talking about a security fence here bud. Literally comparing apples to oranges.

Irrelevant.

Fences and or walls, work. Right? Or the kook left wouldn't be building one to protect their fragile convention that will undoubtedly end in a big riot. :lamo

Its completely relevant. Its like comparing a white picket fence to the great wall of China and saying they are the same.

Good luck to the left and their fence, wall, or whatever. I'm sure the fellow leftist rioters are going to love it.
